One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet in this forum is the wide spectrum of great Canadian music. Sure we have the typical MOR pop exports but there are also amazing Canadian acts like the Rheostatics, Stephen Fearing and the Odds who aren't well known within Canada but have cult followings.

I'm always happy to support Canadian music, especially those bands who haven't moved to the US. Any recommendations of other Canadian acts I should check out?

Somebody, at some point, should mention Neil Young. There. I did.

Men Without Hats! They told the world, "we can dance if we want to"!
